Brighton vs Manchester United: the Red Devils Cannot Lose Points

Manchester United are determined to break their losing streak in the EPL away matches. In Week 36, Ralf Rangnick's team will play on the road against Brighton. What should we expect from this encounter?

After a 2:2 draw with Southampton, Brighton visited Wolverhampton. The team under Graham Potter, showed themselves excellently at the Molineux and left no chance for the hosts. The Seagulls shot three unanswered goals and returned to victorious path in the English league. At the end of 35 matches, the club has 44 points. Brighton is on the ninth line in the standings.

Earlier this week, Manchester United faced Brentford. For the first time in recent times, Ralph Rangnick's wards showed a quality performance. The Red Devils were active offensively and set some solid defense. As a result, the Red Devils thrashed their opponents 3:0. United finished the game with 58 points. The Mancunians are currently sitting in sixth place in the EPL table.

• Manchester United have won their last seven matches against Brighton in all competitions.
• Manchester United have scored at least two goals in their eight games against Brighton in all competitions.
• Manchester United has suffered defeat in the last four away meetings in the English championship.
• In Brighton's previous four home matches against Manchester United, the "total over 2.5 goals" worked out.
• Brighton has not won in the last eight home matches of the EPL.

Brighton has become one of the most comfortable opponents for United - one victory in the previous seven matches in recent seasons. However, we cannot talk about a significant advantage of the Red Devils - almost all the games were a challenge for the Mancunians. We expect the upcoming game to be no exception. MU will have to attack a lot and convert chances. One more mistake, and Rangnick's team can lose their chances of getting into the top 4 of the APL. Brighton will fight back, but the team has been noticeably better on the road than at home lately. I believe that MU will end their four-match losing streak.
